In Search of Adventure

New year, new adventures. Decided to head out on a sim-hopping search for adventure, first by entering the word Adventure on the SL search engine, then eliminating everything that came up offering adventures in BDSM, lesbians, vampires, and role playing. That left.....5? So I started at the bottom of the list (as I am wont to do), and prepared my avi for adventure!

At Seaplane, 138,3,23, I "borrowed" this jeep, although the pose my avatar took when I climbed in looks more like a deer caught in the headlights than an adventuresome creature, but hey, now I cannot be blamed for actually driving the jeep off the road, into the sea, and smack into a mountain. Who can drive when you look like this?


I went to Equus, 165,225,22, for ice skating adventures, but instead met a horse who would not talk to me. At Adventure Tourist Travel, 22,80,22, I did the macarena (how passe') while waiting for a travel agent. Those of you who follow my blog know that there's nobody anywhere, so I left. Adventure Cove 102,147,24 definitely did NOT live up to its name, unless you consider walking across a bridge to be an adventure.


At Alchemy Sims, 23,130,26, there are some creative crafts for sale there - check it out. Had a very pretty balloon ride and a tube ride at Tathlina Falls, 218,52,95
The absolute best place was Great Marine Adventure 157,134,24 - grab one of the notecards and check out all the landmarks there. I crashed while exploring.
Another travel agency after that, but it ejected me because I was not shopping!
I checked out a riding stable at 104,138,27, a place called "Hush" at 122,158,82 (pretty clear what the adventure in store was there - every room was equipped with a pole for dancing)
Next I went to a place that advertised "Encounter - fosters exploration and discovery" sounds noble and even....educational, huh? Nope - involves exploration and discovery through sex with animals....ewwwww yuck, tp'd outta there before anything found me, but crashed instead.
After that "adventure" I met the captain of the Titanic, visited some pirate ships, and ended up in the Bermuda Triangle. Crashed at least three times during those trips. *Sigh*
What did I learn after an evening of seeking adventure? That the real adventure is just trying to move around SL without crashing!
